Oliver was an excellent Leader. Knowledgeable, informative, helpful, responsive, supportive, great manner and helped everyone 'gell' into a cohesive group. We all enjoyed both his and the 2nd guide, Javier's skill and leadership throughout.

The beautiful landscape in general, the friendliness of the Nicaraguans (especially on isolated farmsteads and working in the fields), the superb volcanic cones, the challenges they set me to climb them (and descend again!) and the old Spanish Colonial buildings in Granada & Leon.
